Abstract
Technology for performing object tracking of an object in a video image using both object detection algorithm and an object tracking algorithm. Because object detection algorithms are generally slower, but accurate, than object tracking algorithms, only certain sampled video frames are subject to the object detection algorithm. The non-sampled frames locate the object using the object tracking algorithm, using the most recent previous object detected frame as a starting frame. In this way, the object detection algorithm is used to periodically, effectively calibrate the object tracking algorithm by using a lagging detection result to hide latency introduced by the object detection algorithm.
